Has anyone experienced hair regrowth during AC Chemo?
Hi all,
This may sound weird but I thought that once one was having Chemo and hair started to fall out it would keep on falling out until gone and noregriwth during actual Chemo...
I am having AC Chemo which means guaranteed hairloss (80% fell out in week 1 of 1st session and I had a lovely lady buzz off the remaining crew cut hairs at the time hoping the few patches with stubble would be soon gone too).
I am now on day 9 of 2nd course of AC and imagine my shock when a friend asked me how it is I have stubble all over my head poking from under a headwrap.
I only then realised that my whole head where there was smooth skin with nobhair had stubble several millimetre long. Basically everythong that fell off has now started to sprout back.
Does that make sense? I though I would go bald and stay like that for a few months. This stubble is freaking me out now and making me wonder if Chemo is even working - I am sure I am being stupid but somehow in the back of my mind I am asking if my hair is fighting back could cancer cells be doing the same...
Here is to hoping this is not weird and others also experience hair regrowth mid AC chemo...
